Hi Maarteen,
the RB in IC is a UK testzone one. It is used to setup up sites or upgrade
them without interfering with production it should be pointing to the
local BDII that contains only UKI sites (certified or not).
It was setup by someone who has left and we are now learning how to
managing it without him. I think something wasn't setup properly in the
site-info.def during the upgrade to LCG-2_6_0 (BDII_HOST? BDII_HTTP_URL?)
because it was working correctly before.
thanks
cheers
